William Giesler

William Giesler, Percheron horse breeder in West Concord, MN, works in southeast Minnesota near Rochester. With more than a decade of breeding experience, he adheres to established health screening protocols and aligns his program with national Percheron registry guidelines.

His foals are raised in small family herds on pasture with access to shelter year-round, receiving daily turnout, consistent handling, and a forage-based diet designed to support steady growth and sound bone development. Early socialization focuses on calm interaction, and yearlings benefit from gentle groundwork under saddle, encouraging adaptable temperaments suited for farm work, shows, or therapeutic programs. Patience and consistent routines guide their handling from foal to adult, creating horses well-suited to both recreational and light farm labor.

Local owners often note the clear lineage and cooperative nature displayed by his Percheron foals. He operates from a family-run farm that blends modern husbandry with respect for traditional draft horse heritage.
